Great comfort food at its best. We all really enjoyed this. I served it with flaky butter biscuits, for the extra gravy, and it was great. Thank you for sharing your recipe, The Miserable Gourmet.

I had to come to the computer to start writing because I had to get away from the table; like any comfort food, this one is really hard to stop eating! My husband made this tonight, and we all loved it. We had it with reheated rice, because we didn't have time to make potatoes, but I imagine it would only be better with potatoes. Sure I've got a mess to clean up, but it is so much better than storebought that it's worth it.
